There is also no way to get them out of TrainerRoad and into Zwift. Devastated that no such option exists in TrainerRoad. This was easy in TrainingPeaks as any workout scheduled for today would appear, as if by magic, in Zwift. That means when you set up both apps, you pair them both with the power profile of your power meter. So I figured for entertainment I would use would be Zwift. If you use a power meter with a trainer, both apps are slaves and you are the master, setting the brake resistance. When you pair the master with your trainer, you pick the smart trainer (FE-C) profile and when you pair the slave, you should make sure you pair with the power profile of the trainer. Smart trainers are normally making two profiles available: The slave just ‘listens’ to the power output and sets the speed accordingly. That app will be the ‘master’, the second app should then be the ‘slave’. Id recommend Zwift if youre just looking to get in hours and have fun doing group rides. I heard that Trainer Road had better/more structured plans, so I ultimately went there and still use them. If you have a smart trainer, you will have to decide about which app should control the brake of your smart trainer. I used Zwift at first, but mostly for structured training plans and not the group rides, etc. The way you pair and set up your trainer depends on whether you are using a smart trainer or a power meter as the source of speed.

#Trainerroad or zwift trial#
They are both paid subscription services Zwift gives you a seven-day free trial so you can try it out, while TrainerRoad lets you reclaim your money within 30 days if you’re not happy with it and both work on a plethora of devices, computers and smartphones. Running each app on their own device/computer #įor this setup, you need a PC with an ANT+ stick to run Open Road and a second device to running the second app.īy running the apps on separate devices, the apps do not have to share the same hardware and the performance is better. Zwift turns cycling into a game while TrainerRoad offers a very serious and structured view on training. Since ANT+ sticks are ‘monogamous’, you will also need two sticks, one for each application.
Running both apps on the same device/computer #įor this setup, you will need a more powerful PC since the hardware drives two applications instead of one. Either you run both apps on the same computer, or you run them on separate devices. If you want to run Open Road together with another app, you have two options.
